Proving once again why team 61 are the masters of 80/20 extruded aluminum. Nobody...and I mean NOBODY works that stuff better with such simple designs. And of course, you can be assured they'll be packin some nice ol' fashioned New England D no matter where they go.

Great job guys!

both ya beat it to me =D

i double the comments from the above...

cant wait to see you guys in action...

just 1 little question... the vertical bar on the end. im assuming it retracts and extends and squishes the tube?

We do pick up the tube but not the way you think we do. the arm does go in and out. if the tube is on the ground the lower part of the arm pushes the tub down and then we pull the arm back which brings up the tube onto the arm itself.



very easy way to pick up tubes on the ground

that's great, congrats :)

hope you guys bring it home
